Hi Samuel,

I have encountered an error message when installing MATE on Ubuntu 16.04:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 ubuntu-mate-desktop : Depends: brltty-x11 but it is not going to be installed
                       Depends: compiz-plugins but it is not going to be installed

                       Depends: xul-ext-lightning but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Do you have a suggestion to resolve this error?

Best regards,
